John D. Harvey (Instagram) caught the blacksmithing bug at The Steel Yard in 2014 and hasn’t stopped since! He works primarily with small pieces (bottle openers, hooks, as well as furniture and household accessories, etc.), but is moving into larger furnishing and home designs. His work leans heavily towards more organic shapes and designs.

Currently, he forges out of his own shop in East Providence, RI, and volunteers extensively at The Steel Yard.
